Sangioveto di Badia a Coltibuono was created in 1980 as an affirmation of Chianti pride and as a recognition of the quality of the best Sangiovese of this area.
The rules of Chianti Classico didn't allow the possibility of using only Sangiovese and thus was born one of the first SuperTuscans made with 100% Sangiovese.

Jeroboam Sangioteto Toscana i.g.t. 2004 3 lt with wooden box
Organic
‘San Zoveto’ which later became ‘Sangioveto’, was the name commonly used in the past
in Chianti for the Sangiovese varietal.
The Sangioveto di Coltibuono was created to honour a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages. It is only produced on better vintages.
Vintage notes
2004 was characterized by a “traditional” climate where alternating periods of atmospheric disturbance and stability provided temperatures in line with historical averages. The spring rains and hot summer resulted in exceptional quality with excellent grape concentrations. Hand picking made it possible to carefully select the grapes in the vineyards and, subsequently, on the grading table inside the winery.
Harvest period: 7th October - 27th October
Tasting Notes
Dark ruby colour with shades of purple. Very intense nose with bouquet of balsamic, flowery violet, iris, spices, red fruits, vanilla and cloves.
On the palate it reveals its great structure, dry and savoury supported by balanced acidity, warm and persistent with great aging potential. Supple tannins become refinement of taste, soft and velvety by time.
